Chapter 784 Hierarchy

After the conditions were completed, Tuoba knew that it was time for Ma Chao to say what he asked. There will be no good things in the world, and the Ma family has set up such excellent conditions that Tuoba knows that Ma Chao's appetite will certainly be very big.

In fact, he has vaguely guessed that what Ma Chao needs is a grassland neighbor who will never threaten and submit to the Han Dynasty!

However, such an appetite is too big: dozens of emperors of the Eastern and Western Han Dynasty, who have been unable to calm down the border troubles for hundreds of years, want to eliminate Ma Chao's generation. Is this possible?

Sure enough, after listening to Tuobaying's inquiry, Ma Chao's eyes suddenly turned cold, and his tone was unquestionably firm: "I want you to complete the whole grassland in your lifetime, and there will never be a matter of invasion!"

"General Tian, if the whole Tuoba department will never betray the Ma family in the future, I can still guarantee that I can do it. After all, with the rise of the Tuoba Department, everything depends on the Ma family, and it will certainly not be desperate in the future. But when it comes to the whole grassland..."

Looking at Tuoba's hesitation and breathing heavily, Ma Chao didn't say much, but his eyes fell on the horizon in the distance. His expression was indifferent, as if he saw a herd of beasts wandering there, separating the blue of the sky from the green of the earth: "Then you conquer the whole grassland. That's all, it's not a matter..."

'hs......' Tuoba heard the words and couldn't help taking a breath of cold air. He looked at Ma Chao's serious and broad face and heard the Arabian Nights in a trance!

"I know it sounds incredible. But as long as you are willing to use my method, I promise that the grassland you can see in the future will be your property. You are on this grassland, the sun that never sets! Even if you die, your descendants will stand at the top of this grassland and enjoy the look up at the grassland people!!"

Ma Chao stood up and thought about the poison he had discussed with the foxes before departure, and his face gradually became ferocious. At the same time, the blood in his heart also burned. Driving his whole temperament, there is an indescribable oppression and convincing.

"Your starting point is wool and Ma's goods. Your method is to go all the way to swallow all the tribes on the grassland. But remember, there must be a premise before doing all this!"

"What is it?" Tuoba couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He unnaturally picked up another wine, but looked at Ma Chao, who was like a god, and dared not drink it.

"The fall of Shunchang! Those who obey will recruit their soldiers, and those who rebel will destroy their clan!"

'sang.........'

As soon as Ma Chao's voice fell, the wine cup in Tuoba's hand fell to the ground and hit the wine plate, and the wine was scattered all over the ground. But at this time, Tuoba could no longer care about those precious wines and said, "General Tian..."

"The obedient is the subordinate of your Tuoba Department, and you can enjoy any benefits you provide. Rebels, you let the tribes obey you and flatten them to consolidate your prestige and ruling system. If this continues, you will gradually find that from you, a hierarchical system like a pyramid has gradually emerged! Anyone who obeys you will do his best to serve you, and those who do not obey you can only completely disappear from this grassland!!"

Conquering aliens, Ma Chao once had a fantasy. By chance, he successfully won the trust of the Qiang people, and established a good relationship between the two ethnic groups, and realized his beautiful fantasy at the beginning.

However, not every alien is as fond of the Ma family as the Qiang people. Ma Chao's ability to win the victory of the Qiang people is strictly speaking, which is influenced by the achievements of Ma Teng and his two generations. But the Xiongnu, and even the future Xianbei, Wuwan, Nanman and other foreigners have nothing to do with the Ma family. With the harsh living environment and customs and traditions, they are destined to just want to bite a piece of meat from the Ma family and have a full meal.

In response to this, Ma Chao thought of the system of the later Yuan Dynasty, the naturally formed hierarchical system: in the civilized and enlightened Central Plains of the Han people, it may be difficult to last. But on the wild, backward and ignorant grassland, it is an effective social system.

Its existence is the most convenient way to safeguard the interests of rulers. It can enable rulers to quickly get the help and rewards of trusted collaborators, so that they can assume basic military and political tasks, while keeping the conquered in a position of obedience does not pose a threat to the ruler.

As long as Tuoba is ambitious and has been focusing on larger-scale conquests, this hierarchical system is the guarantee that he will never be defeated!

This is because the hierarchical system gives a clear division of obligations, rewards and responsibilities to the groups that make up the society for the purpose of direct plunder. With such a foundation, it can be expected that hundreds of years later, there will still be expeditions on the grassland. And it is the Han people who control everything behind the scenes who hold their economic lifeline!

After Ma Chao said these words, the foxes of the Ma family looked cold and breathlessly: they defeated the Xiongnu or said that they would conquer the Xiongnu, and the powerful Hanwu Emperor had also done it. However, like Ma Chao, he is the first person in ancient times to formulate a set of perfect institutional guarantees and legal constraints to achieve the purpose that aliens can never violate the Han land!

"General Tian..." Tuoba was not a fool, and he soon understood Ma Chao's intention. Although I vaguely resist this inhumane and paranoid strategy, and intellectually, I know that this must be a rather difficult and dangerous long process, but...

"I agree!" Tuoba drank another wine angrily. After falling off the wine, he drew his knife and stabbed his arm, and his handsome face became ferocious and terrible. He vowed fiercely: "From now on, Tuoba will always be the slave of General Tian. The first person on the grassland, the never-falling sun, can only be the general of heaven!!"

Yes, such a vast ambition and interests are ahead, who in the world can refuse? If there is no ambition, why should the man survive?

Especially Tuoba, a descendant of the Li family who suffered from the discrimination of the Xiongnu, Han Dynasty and Xianbei, has no reason to refuse Ma Chao's ** - even if he drinks poisoned wine with a smile, Tuoba will not hesitate!

To Tuoba's surprise, after listening to Tuoba's vow, Ma Chao did not agree, but said, "No, although the first person on the grassland can only be Han people. However, today I promise you that the Ma family will never emigrate to the grassland except for business and trade!"

The rebellion is actually rooted in the border migration policy of the Han Dynasty. Whether it is Han or nomad, there is no difference in essence. Liangzhou, which was ruled by the emperor before the Han Dynasty, caused the Han people to set up counties and flat grasslands, and squeezed out the living space of the nomadic peoples, brewing the contradiction between the Han people and the aliens.

If the Han people enter the grassland and participate in the strategy of Tuoba. There is no doubt that Ma Chao will receive the unwavering support of the conquered. But at the same time, this may also brew a new regime and enemies for the Ma family. With the oppression and rule of the nation, the turbulent fronts of the grassland are also easier to point to the Ma family.

Therefore, everything is still hidden behind the scenes, and the remote control of the Tuoba Department is the supreme means of the king!

After listening to Ma Chao's promise, Tuoba couldn't say a word. He fell deep at Ma Chao's feet and dared not get up for a long time...
